Strana 104 - Yes, trust them not ! for there is an upstart crow, beautified with our feathers, that with his " Tiger's heart wrapped in a player's hide," supposes he is as well able to bombast out a blank verse as the best of you ; and, being an absolute Johannes Factotum, is, in his own conceit, the only Shake-scene in a country.
Strana 46 - Lastly, I would inform you, that this book, in all numbers, is not the same with that which was acted on the public stage; wherein a second pen •' had good share: in place of which, I have rather chosen to put weaker, and, no doubt, less pleasing, of mine own, than to defraud so happy a genius of his right by my loathed usurpation.

Strana 162 - ... but as I must acknowledge my lines not worthy his patronage under whom he hath published them, so the author I know much offended with M. Jaggard that (altogether unknown to him) presumed to make so bold with his name.
Strana 86 - He had, by a misfortune common enough to young fellows, fallen into ill company ; and amongst them some, that made a frequent practice of deer-stealing, engaged him with them more than once in robbing a park that belonged to Sir Thomas Lucy of Cherlecot, near Stratford.
Strana 114 - Roscius, art thou proud with ^Esop's crow, being prankt with the glory of others' feathers ? Of thyself thou canst say nothing ; and if the cobbler hath taught thee to say Ave Ccesar, disdain not thy tutor because thou pratest in a king's chamber.
